"The 2019 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir floats into the glass with aromas of green apple, crisp apricot, tangerine, fresh pastry and iodine. Full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's textured and enveloping, with a concentrated core of fruit and a long, perfumed finish. It showed brilliantly." (Wine Advocate 2021)

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
An old Chablis family, the Michel's cultivate the very best areas, both premier cru and grand cru. The estate is one of the very few to offer the Grenouilles Grand Cru, whose main producer is La Chablisienne. Since 1969, vinification has been carried out in stainless steel vats, so that the wines here often start off discreetly in bottle, but their minerality reveals itself without concern after a few years' cellaring.
